Curious to know why you removed Norton DNS for ClearCloud DNS, or no reason?

Thanks.

I found it would fully block a site like brothersoft.com if there was only like one bad download on it, and i also figured i have safeweb lite so even if i use another dns like clearcloud i still get nortons opinion on the site and i get clearclouds blocking, and clearcloud doesnt block some sites that norton does. :)

I agree it is annoying. Especially when it is wrongfully blocked. They should add a continue anyway option.

There usually is a continue anyways umless the site has been proven malicious. Brothersoft is not a good site anyways. Stick to FileHippo,Cnet and MajorGeeks.

Excellent advice. All three of those are fantastic. I use CNET most of the time.
